In my Dream

You were in my dream last night. =]
I miss you.

~Punxecret~

We shopped inside the mall for clothes and hats
for Friday's party. Costume parties aren't
my pleasure, but you said we'd go as "cat
and milk." You and I found the perfect parts,

and I became your cat and you my milk.
You poured yourself into a saucer. Full
and white, I lapped you up, absorbed your silky
fat, and tucked it behind my marbled fur.

You held my paws as gently as I kissed
the gifted birds for you. A perfect match.
But at the party, you couldn't hear me hiss
as you floated away with the kayak.

I lived a life in which you loved and left,
and even in my dreams, you loved and left.
